Hello,

I really need help as I'm not very familiar with the whole getting rid of infections process. I have been running the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Program for awhile now, 24 infections found and it has yet to finish. In all honesty, it's been running for over an hour now. My IE doesn't launch, and i'm not sure what else to do.

I'm ran a HiJackThis Scan earlier:

Hi and welcome to daniweb.
Your HJT log shows multiple infections.

When MBA-M is running you should not be doing anything else. You should close all unnecessary programs and allow it to run. This scan WILL take a long time but doing other things, including running other scans or surfing the net, while the scan is running will increase that time considerably.

Turn OFF Spyware Doctor

The HiJackThis scan should be done AFTER MBA-M has completed it's scanning and removed infections found, not during the scanning with MBA-M.
Then reboot the system and run the HJT scan.
Post back here with both logs.
Judy
